ROFLOLgigglefarts!
Here's the PC, pretty normal right?
WRONG!
Here's where it goes
outside to the pump:
Here's the trench for the "radiator"
Here's the "radiator" - 50
feet of 3/4" copper tube buried in the above trench which is lined with plastic to keep moisture on the pipe for heat dissipation. He claims #'s of 10-15C water temp under load on a AMD2500+ OCed to 2400mhz
LOL!

I don't know if I want to try water cooling if it involves miles of copper pipe!
Anyway, check out this shot of my "Globe of Retribution"; I had to replace the blue globe with a red one this holiday season, since the blue one stopped swirling. If you want to find one, go to Spencer's Gifts and look for the Mystic Lite (it's around $20 when on sale).

Why hasn't anyone tried the same method that Cray used in his proof-of-concept for the Cray 2 computer? He had the main boards immersed in an aquarium full of some non-conductive hydrocarbon liquid and cooled it with a circulating pump and radiator.
